Massachusetts income tax on a paystub
Massachusetts uses 2 graduated rates in 2026, from 5% up to 9% on the highest band of taxable income (single filers).
For a single filer, the estimate applies a $4,400 personal exemption before working out Massachusetts withholding on annualized wages.
Some of Massachusetts's 2026 bracket widths were not yet published when these tables were compiled, so check the state estimate against Massachusetts's current withholding tables.
Stubify does not calculate city or county income taxes or state payroll programs such as disability or paid-leave premiums. If one applied to the pay you are recording, add it as its own deduction line.
